where beauty lives

 "She Who Speaks in Song"


“where beauty lives”

 

beauty does not begin

in the curve and fullness of lips

nor in the swinging sashay of well-rounded hips

cheekbones and skin cannot contain it

shape of nose, a mouth

cannot name it

lustrous hair can only dream to

compare in shine

the closest a body can come

to seeing beauty with eyes

is in the beholding

of one in another
